Volkswagen India has finally rolled out the first Volkswagen Ameo car powered by a 1.2 litre 3-cylinder MPI engine from its Pune Plant in Chakan, after the car’s world premiere at the Delhi Motor Show earlier 2016. With this, the Volkswagen Ameo starts its series production. Volkswagen India will rapidly ramp-up the production of Ameo to build up enough inventory before market introduction.
The Ameo will be available in two fuel options, 1.2-litre 3-cylinder MPI and 1.5-litre 4-cylinder TDI engine. Volkswagen has invested approximately Rs 720 crore (around Euros 85 Million) in the development of the Ameo, setting up new equipment for its production as well as ramping up the manufacturing of this compact sedan at its Pune Plant in Chakan. The pre-launch bookings for the Ameo have been open at all Volkswagen showrooms in India for the last two weeks and the interest has been immense.
Volkswagen Pune Plant is currently manufacturing the Volkswagen Polo and Vento as well as the Skoda Rapid. The current Volkswagen models are manufactured for both domestic and export markets in right-hand drive as well as left-hand drive versions.
Volkswagen has already invested around Rs 5,720 crore (approximately Euros 825 Million) since its establishment in 2007.
The Ameo is a car designed and developed specially for the Indian market. Volkswagen has focussed intensely on customer requirements while finalising the Ameo. The requirements and needs of Indian customers have been thoroughly studied and implemented in the car. With safety being one of the top priorities for Volkswagen, the Ameo comes equipped with dual front airbags and ABS as standard fitment across all variants. The Ameo also gets segment-leading features such as cruise control, rain sensing wipers and static cornering lights.
